Abdominal pain in children can often be treated with home care. Assure the
child is getting enough rest, give fluids to avoid dehydration, avoid solid
food, aspirin, antibiotics (unless prescribed by a physician), and herbal
supplements. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) can be given if hte child has a mild fever.
Medical treatment should be sought if the child has a high fever, has had
diarrhea longer than 24 hours, or has been vomiting longer than 24 hours.
